I think that those are CDs are meant for CD rental shops. I've got some rentals and they have the same RIAJ sticker and the CCCD sticker on the obi that makes the obi wide.

lols

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

Yeah maybe post offices are open late in Japan. Stupid post offices here close so early ._.!

[Suteisi]

My guess would be that... he lives right next to the post office? xD Ahah!

[AyumiBest]

He/she works in a post office! Or...I dunno. =P Maybe mindofjapan is actually a company under one alias. That alias is...something that starts with a T...I can't remember. As long as the CDs are legit and its fast...I'm ok. =P

[Suteisi]

QUESTION! xD

What is the deal with Audio DVD? I know there is one for RAINBOW and one for MY STORY, but... I don't quite get the concept. So you put it in your DVD and it plays the album music... is there anything else? o.O

[Empry]

^
It's like a CD but with a better sound quality and a bigger case. But...

Unless, you have a good DVD Home Theater System you shouldn't buy a DVD-Audio since the major difference is that a DVD Audio has superior sound quality (Surround Sound 5.1) as compared to a normal CD. Another type of a disc that offers superior quality is the Super Audio Compact Disc which is the rival of the DVD-Audio but both formats are not very popular.

[Ayumi_lover]

MY STORY DVD-Audio also inclue PV's!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! It have songs in both 2 and 5.1 channels and it have no region code. So if You want Album + PV's without region code dvd, you should buy DVD-Audio. But there is no making-offs

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

! I really want DVD-AUdio too (for collecting purposes)

[YotaLM21]

I think mindofjapan is a HE

if you check one of the packages he has sent you, it says that his name is Akiyoshi...IT'S A BOY! lol

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

Lol i just received FREE & EASY + Moments (CD+DVD) from mindofjapan

---

And i just won the following things. I though that i was going to lose them all since i only bid 1 cent higher than the price

* ayu-mi-x 3 Non-stop ver.
* ayu-mi-x 2 JPN Ver
* Dearest
* a song is born
* endless sorrow
* A Visual Mix

[LacusClyne]

^one cent higher? wow! you are sure very lucky, i'm happy for you and that's quite a number of items you won up there.

Hey, I thought to ask here about a necklace I bought a bit over a year ago from a japan-centered shop...
It's that necklace Ayu is wearing in this pic and that pic was included with the necklace.
I'm 99.9% sure that's not an official product, but I wanted to ask if anyone else has seen such a necklace being sold somewhere, and can someone confirm it's not official product? Because there were necklaces from such artist as Mika Nakashima too, and I don't think Sony Music Japan and avex would have exactly the same packaging etc for some fan stuff....
But I love that necklace anyways xD

[Suteisi]

^ To answer your question, avex does NOT sell any of Ayu's necklace, not her 'A' symbol ones, nor any that she's ever wore during a photoshoot. So yes, the one you bought is definitely not official. And since avex doesn't sell any, then any other Ayu necklaces found in stores are not official.

There are a lot of necklaces like that sold on Yahoo Japan Auction :3

[LacusClyne]

none of the necklances sold were ever official, but you can still purchase them if you really like it and the price is reasonable.

but unless the description claimed to be an 'official' product, that is not acceptable.

[Not~Yet]

^Oh okay thanks to both of you

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

mindofjapan once again amazes me...he shipped it out in less than 24 hours !

[LacusClyne]

^WHAT! how did he do that? i'm always so curious, he shipped my last orders very fast too
